An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Advance One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

The Empire Strikes Back (now known as "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back"), the classic 1980 Irvin Kershner science fiction (sci-fi) outer space action adventure sequel ("The Star Wars Saga Continues"; "Story by George Lucas") starring Mark Hamill (as Luke Skywalker), Harrison Ford (as Han Solo), Carrie Fisher (as Princess Leia), Billy Dee Williams (as Lando Calrissian), Anthony Daniels ("as C-3PO"), David Prowse ("as Darth Vader"), Kenny Baker ("as R2-D2"), Peter Mayhew ("as Chewbacca"), Frank Oz ("as Yoda"), Alec Guinness (as Obi-Wan Kenobi), Jeremy Bulloch (as Boba Fett), and John Hollis (as Lobot)v

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that in addition to being unfolded, this advance one-sheet has the title in white letters rather than in silver letters, which is on every other example of this poster that has ever been seen apart from a single "printer's test" poster (we are also offering an unfolded NSS style that has silver lettering, which is also the only known example)! Our consignor purchased it from a former NSS employee in 1999, and no one we know has ever seen ANY example of this poster with the title in white letters, and it is the "NSS style", and it is unfolded (there is no known folded "white title" example either)! This poster must be an early "test" version with the original white color title, making it the "rarest of the rare"!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It had a pinhole in each corner but was otherwise in nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays great!
